Populism, they're prefer to break with traditions in exchange for followers.

Yep, unfortunately it's a real liturgy from church. But it isn't a genuine catholic liturgy. This pseudo-ritual has been practiced by vatican-II sect.

I suppose that they mean countries, which are controlled by the communist parties. But really all of these countries are socialist republics.

Just a few examples to confirm:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vietnam

Far-left marxists are rejecting any religion. According to their point of view, any religion it's a tool of control, which has the purpose to deprive people of their freedom. The majority of moderate socialists and communists are accepting religious practices as a part of society.


It's something like C & C++. Communist ideology incorporates socialist ideology, but not vice versa. Some socialists don't recognize a communist ideology, but communists recognize and using a socialist ideology.

Communist ideology sees the following way of the society development:

[various absolutist regimes here] <-> Free-market capitalism <-> State capitalism or Mercantilism <-> Socialism <-> Communism

With each step the role of the public ownership grows.

I think they will be very surprised by the existence of a christian version of the socialist and communist ideologies.
